    i have a stock S3 and got the 4.4.2 update about a month ago and i want to downgrade it. Since the update, the phone is laggy, and any of my apps that use the GPS aren't getting a good signal lock. Usually it only uses 10 out of 24 satellites. How do i go about doing this? Do i just...

    Root [Verizon] Strange issue with Jelly Beans 15

    I installed Jelly Beans build 15 last week and all had been great. However, I have an issue that I'm wondering if it's a build issue or not. When I try to log onto certain websites, my credentials are not accepted. The page said "invalid username or password". But I'm 1000% sure the info...

    Root [Verizon] ODIN can't see my phone

    I am attempting to root my phone using the guide on the XDA forums site (linked from this site). I can put my phone into Odin download mode fine, but whenever I plug the cable in and run the Odin application, nothing shows up under ID:COM. I can hear the "ding" that Windows XP makes when a USB...

    Tasker: Display Timeout problem

    I just bought a docking station for my Eris to keep at work. I have my default screen timeout at 2 minutes. However, when I'm at work (within the GPS area that I have my tasker profile set to), I'd like it to be 10 minutes since I'll have the phone sitting in the station. I have that task set...

    Root xtrROM 4.6 and Live Wallpapers

    I have xtrROM 4.6 on my Eris and I don't think I have live wallpapers installed. I downloaded a live wallpaper pack that I wanted to try,but can't figure out how to use them. I suspect that I have to flash or GScript live wallpapers to use them. Any ideas? Harry

    Changing icons on LauncherPro Plus dock bar

    I have the dock bar configured on my Droid Eris with the default icons, but I have changed the default application for each (i.e. the message icon opens Handcent instead of the default messaging app). However, I'd like to have the icon be the app that its actually running. How can I do this...

    Duplicate Gmail contacts

    I've noticed some minor issues with my contact list. First, I see that if I look at my contacts on the Google website on my PC, I have several contacts that are duplicated. What's odd is that on 1 of them their phone number is similar to xxx-xxx-xxxx and on the other one, it is xxxxxxxxx...

    Root Just upgraded to xtrROM 4.6; where's the abundance of space???

    I just upgraded to xtrROM 4.6 on my Eris. I did a full wipe of the data, dalvik cache, and SD card. I also had done a Titanium Backup of my apps. When my phone came back up, I reinstalled Titanium Backup and restored my apps. Now, when I look at my space, I have 21 meg left. I was under the...

    New to Tasker; have a few questions

    I just started using Tasker yesterday based off of the high praise it got here. I was using Locale but it seemed like Tasker is more powerful in the long run so I thought I'd give it a shot. Well, I'm playing with it and setting up some profiles, but I have a few questions that the Tasker...

    Anyone using Locale Calendar Conditions plug-in?

    I'm running the latest version of Locale on a rooted Droid Eris running the xtrROM 4.0.6.1 ROM. I bought and installed the Locale Calendar Conditions plugin, but I can't seem to find any docs on how to use it. What I want to have happen is this: I have a condition where between 7:30am and...

    Root Storage space question

    I just put xtrROM 4.0.6.1 on my Eris and now I'm getting the "low space" notification. It says that I have 7mb left on my phone. I have 3.5 gb on my SD card. I had 4.0.4 on previously with the cache and apps on the SD card I had 4.5gb left before I did the wipe and install. After I...

    Root Upgrading to 4.0.6.1

    I have xtrROM 4.0.4 installed and its working great. I do have an issue with my Gmail coming in late though. I had a reminder from my Google calendar yesterday at 1pm, and I got the email for it today @ 4:30pm. I saw when 4.0.6.1 came out it said on a post here "fixes the Gmail Sync issue"...

    Root Something I noticed concerning Facebook contact pics

    I've been on xtrROM4.0.4 for almost a week now and its been running great. Better than stock IMO, but the battery still sucks (down to 20% after about 5-6 hours, but that's another topic). My issue/concern is with Facebook contact pics. I've noticed that every so often, out of the blue it...

    Root A few minor questions about xtrROM 4.0.4 beta

    I just installed this ROM last night and will be giving it a go over the next few days. Seems really good so far, but I have a few questions. 1) I did a full wipe of the phone, including the Dalvik cache, then flashed the ROM, wiped and partitioned the SD card, then ran the app2sd.sh script...

    Is this worth going to Verizon for a replacement?

    I did a factory reset last week after reading some of the posts about it here. I had some lag issues, and the Verizon tech also suggested that. I also did the *228 tip to reprogram the phone as was suggested. It was OK for a few days, but I'm having similar problems again. Before I go to...

    How do I turn on the "clicking" sound?

    I just did a factory reset on my phone to clear up some lag. It has definitely helped, but I'll wait and see after a few days. Anyway, I'm just about finished putting all of my customizations back, but there's 1 thing I had before that I can't find: When I click on an icon on the desktop...

    About to do a factory reset, but first, some questions....

    My phone has been getting very laggy lately and the local Verizon guy suggested a factory reset, which I am getting ready to do. I've read the related threads on here, but I have some minor questions that I hope will ease my mind a little before I do this. 1) I know that my Google contacts...

    Is Ringdroid broken?

    All of a sudden, Ringdroid isn't working any more. Whenever I try and cut out part of a song, no matter where it is, the song keeps playing from the beginning. I saw this link (http://androidforums.com/android-applications/38826-ringdroid-help.html), but that didn't work. I powered off the...

    Battery life issue/question

    I have read the Sticky about how to improve the battery life on my Eris, but much of it didn't seem to apply or help much. All I really got out of it was "if you turn off all of the cool features of this new smartphone, your battery will last longer". What's the point? Anyway, the problem...

    Facebook birthdays

    I followed some advice I saw to save off my friends birthday's from Facebook to an iCal file and import it into my Google calendar. But they're not all showing up. For example, I have 3 friends who's birthday's are on December 18th, and all 3 show up in my Google calendar online. But in my...
